As impressive as it is to hear....and see...someone play this, it's even more amazing to me to think that Danny has the creative insight to write it this way. Genius.

Did you know the beginning sound that kinda sounds like claves isn't even percussion? It's guitar

Third Eye is a great song, thanks for that request. I will probably get around to playing that one, but for the next Tool song I'm thinking The Grudge.

It's not tbh, it's a 3:4 polyrhythm. It's fairly basic actually for Danny Carey he has far more confusing.

Hey that rhymed

@ScalerWave Thanks Jim - yeah the intro has all of those triplets happening over the 4/4, it really sounds odd until you listen a few times. I love that drum polyrhythm at 6:30, where Carey plays 3/4 on the hi-hat and 4/4 on the snare/kick, and they overlap every 3 measures - insane.

That's my favorite part of any tool song. And eulogy isn't even my fav song by them.

aenima is my favorite tool album

6:35 mark had my jaw dropping too mate. They ain't triplets tho. It's a 3 on 4 polirhythm and it stuck in my head so ferociously that still now after years i have even touched a drumstick i unconsciously play it. If math really is God's language then this polirhythm is God's singing.

@tristonwilliams

I think hes meaning the accent (open hi-hat) on every third hi-hat sixteenth note and he's just referring to it as "triplets". I don't think he literally meant "triplets" due to the fact that he didn't play it that way in this cover.

It's called Sacred Geometry. Ask Danny Carey, he'll tell you all about it...

The inner happiness at 2.22 is priceless.

Man, that's real dedication during the intro! You have amazing attention to detail.

@MrSpunkpump Cool, it's great to know that these videos are good for more than one viewing. Each time I learn a Tool song, I'm amazed at how much work Carey put into composing the drums. By the way, as a Rush fan maybe you'll be glad to know that I'm trying to convince a couple of other musicians to collaborate on Freewill.

Well... nothing to say. Your Tool covers are amazing. I wait for Schism on your channel. It is nice to watch you to doing such a great job. Then Patient and Ticks & Leeches can come along. Hope you read this comment and do your art invency to these genious (like all Tool songs) songs. I'm a bassist by myself and Justin is making me to practice in every free moment with my guitar. Drum 'n bass communication is like this is realle rare in our times.

Tarek Elmani the only difference is that after the open high hat you don’t hit the hat with your stick for the next beat just close it

i been playin drums for about 24 yrs now-the best tool cover i ever heard!!!!!awsome coordination!! when my band covered this song it took me over a week to get that part at 6:35!!!! i had to break it down and listen to it over and over again. but tool covers were my favorite-great fucking job!!!!!

Damn bro, the casual listener has no idea how hard these polyrhythms are to play……Well done John 🙇

My lord, that polyrhythm. You fuckin rock man.

I don't get people sometimes, who dislikes this? It's executed freakin' close to perfect, perfect being Danny Carey

That was one of the best covers I've seen. Great job!

Just incredible. Well done. With everything.... the production both video and audio also. Wow!

I've always wanted to learn this song on drums and now this video has inspired me too! Awesome playing!

All time favorite tool song. Beautifully done!

You, sir, are absolutely amazing. I am a huge tool/ Danny carey fan as well and i appreciate all the effort put in. Keep on rockin!

You are really opening my eyes on tool's work. Very great performance for you and whoever writes / wrote tool's songs is now my favorite drummer

You've earned a like and a sub! Good work and great job with the polyrhythm!

This is killer dude, that polyrhythm is one of my favorite things ever.

Love it dude! Lovely set up you've got, great cover! Love for you to do some more Tool! Good job!

Simply awesome. I listened with my eyes wide open...

John, you've come such a long way. You're a stellar drummer.

A shaker! It finally explains what I've been *hearing* in this song. Thank you for giving me that insight.

Most drummers take several takes to do different percussions and drum and the same time. But when you're a bad ass, 10 different percussion parts at once. Well done. Amazing stuff.

Great job mate!! One of my all time favourite Tool songs and u did great! well done bro!

6:38 that high hat. kick and snare work is awesome. Thats always been my favorite part of that song and that part is not easy. You completely nailed it spot on. Awesome bro and I really appreciate getting to watch you work and do so with the hardest drumming you could pick.. Awesome

ahh, my favorite, largely because of the drums...thanks for posting this amazing cover...spot on bro!

Sick hi hat work! Well done!

Love this song and great drumming - fine stuff!!

Epic cover dude! Your videos are next level. Wasn't expecting that intro!

I had gotten used to just liking and favoriting your videos before viewing them because I knew you put out great videos, but this one really blew me away. Superb quality and dedication to playing the different sounds that Danny Carey likes to make. Keep rockin'

You seriously inspire me to become a drummer since that's one of my favorite instruments. Danny Carey is a very talented dude and so are you man.

He is wayyyyy Kewl!! It was amazing being in studio with them. Been around the biz and around alot of bands...TOOL is a class act all the way around!! Keep up the great work...We'll be watching.

super props to ya man !!! excellent

That was amazing! :) You're an amazing drummer. Oh, and kudos on the intro bit! Before the drum kit actually comes into play. That part JUST blew me away.

love that snare sound

Damn dude. Watching this opened a hole inside of me. It was like looking at all I wanted to be abke to do. I admire you and your talent

dude, Danny would be proud! fantastic cover

Amazing! Just wow!

That was pretty much flawless. Great job. Especially the percussion and pad bits. That stuff is very hard to pick out by ear.

the bridge the rest of the song was awesome man. i lvoe your stuff

Watching John's drumming to these Tool songs makes me appreciate Danny Carey (and the whole band) on an even deeper level than I ever thought possible. Extremely well done. Also- incredibly fun to watch the mechanics of all this!!

Saw your message, this is great HQ drum covers, Tool covers by far are awesome to watch.

Wicked good job on the intro and the legendary Danny Carey polyrhythm

you mister make music with that drums,with every beat, sweeter to my ears than anything else...you're a genius! I really enjoy your videos :))

Thanks man! You're the second person in a week who knows Danny Carey, at least through friends. I hear he's really laid back and great to talk with. What a great experience that must have been to be in the studio with these guys. Thanks for watching, and for your feedback.

sickest cover of this song on youtube! awesome job man!!!

Killin it brother! Well done....

Dude you're killing it!

Best Cover in youtube! you nailed the intro and all.

The best .. Thump up for you mr. John

hey dude that intro was great as hell, great job men, keep uploading videos

top drumer so lucky to find your videos incredible job i hope i can see you with more videos with tool ^^

You do the best drum covers on youtube by far.

most people would have copped out and waited for the actual drums to start up, but you played the whole damn thing :D

Damn. Couldn't help but smile when it got to the bridge!

Holy cow,the creepy hi hat part at 6:40, you nailed it. Its all about the details,really great work. Love it!

It take some high level skill with unbelievable concentration and precision to pull of what you just did!! Well done!!

Outstanding drumming and production.

Excellent. He's not easy to cover so great job. Kit sounds amazing.

I've never seen a more talented drummer. I've listened to this song 150 times.. It's one of my favorites, and you NAILED every intricacy..

love this song, good job dude

WOW!! Killer job man.

now this is what i call cover......your kit(cymbals mostly) sounds killer man Respect

Your kit sounds so clean dude. Great cover 10/10

Love your videos man. The beginning is indeed a guitar.

easily the best tool cover i have seen played, fucking kool bro. useine electronic kit as well as acoustic kit makes a difference aye. good stuff dude you the man

Super dope bro. Fire!!!

LOVE TO SEE TOOL DRUMMING EXCELLENT JOB DUDE

Sounds amazing dude!!!!

That Snare is so MEAAAAN

I have been drumming for 11 years and this is the most fun outside of drumming myself that I have had watching someone else play. I have seen Tool 6 times and 5 of those times, I manage to arrange my seating to be as close to behind DC as possible. Your covers are as close as I have gotten, short of watching the original (DC), as far as precision and sheer gravitas

What an intro 🤟🏽awesome drum cover

Wow! Amazing dude.

Amazing playing!

I like your style. Raw and class

Dude this guy's covers are really fudging good he puts a lot of effort into making all the other seperately recorded sounds as well in the beginning... awesome

That was wonderful! JJ

Beautiful!!!

Damn this song goes hard! It's one of my favorite songs by Tool. You crushed it too. I love watching you play. You put great energy and soul into it. Completely awesome. At 7:22 I frickin LOVE it!

of all tool drum covers ive seen here in youtube this the BEST cover! just like in the cd.. \m/

I can't stop watching your videos and I'm a guitarist. You're really talented

Practice makes permanent. Nice job Johnkew

Outstanding job my friend! Greetins from Costa Rica!!!

my favourite tool song of all time. never surpassed :).

Great, great, great job man!

Seeing it maybe 50th time and It's just as cool as the first time I saw it.

Great cover too!!You keep the details of it as difficult it was with all these electronic stuff!!!

Amazing cover !!! Perfect ejecution, great sound and very good video edit. Greetings froms Spain

@THSurvivalGear Thanks for bringing up Opiate, that song really takes me back! I remember buying that album on cassette tape before going on an archaeological field school for six weeks. I nearly wore that tape out listening to it over and over on my Walkman. Excellent suggestion my friend!

I'm watching, just waiting for a screw-up so I can be a troll and post a negative comment without having any videos of my own, but no dice. You absolutely nailed it. Youre vid is an inspiration to me to shut up with the comments and finally post some vids of my own. I havn't drummed im 4 years because of living in the middle of a city and having no place to practice, but now I'm back home, getting the kit back together. Again,just know dude youve really inspired me and thank you for posting.

Nicely done!!
